REPORT TO SANI LODGE BACKPACKERS ON LIBRARY AT KWAPITELA PRIMARY SCHOOL

FAMILY LITERACY PROJECT DIRECTOR’S UPDATE
June to September 2015

FLP’s new Library at Kwapitela Community:
We are very proud of the brand new FLP Library in the Kwapitela community. The Library assistant at the Library, Malibongwe, continues to draw children in large numbers to the Library, for his reading clubs and holiday programmes. Malibongwe was selected by the Kwapitela Community as the most qualified and enthusiastic candidate to take up the position of FLP Library Assistant. He is the first male Library Assistant at FLP and is a sound role model for the children at the School and Community at large.
The Kwapitela Community are very enthusiastic and excited about the presence on FLP in their Community as they have heard so much about FLP’s work in rural communities and how this work benefits them. They have approached FLP to begin Nal’ibali Reading Clubs, Drama Groups and would like an Adult Group too. It is so encouraging to have a community this enthusiastic about Literacy. We would like to extend our thanks to Sani Lodge and Backpackers as well as the Donor Stepp from St Anne’s School. Without their generosity, the Community Library would not be a reality.
